Seeing Nangong Meng's breathless appearance, Li Ye hurriedly stood up, poured a cup of tea and handed it over, raising his hand to gently pat Nangong Meng's back.
"Grandma, have a cup of tea to calm down."
Nangong Meng took the tea and drank half of it, then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alas! With Mingzhi's temperament, I'm afraid it won't be easy for this matter to end."
"As my grandmother said, not only is my grandson at a loss what to do, but even the ministers are unable to come up with a suitable countermeasure for a while.
My uncle led the troops and showed up without any warning.
No one was disturbed along the way.
From northern Xinjiang to the capital, thousands of miles away, no state capital or scouts found their traces.
The boy and his ministers had already formulated countermeasures to put down the rebellion of the second brother, but they had not yet had time to implement it.
Suddenly, my uncle led a large army to the city, catching everyone by surprise.
Now there is no time to summon soldiers and horses from northern Xinjiang to Beijing to rescue King Qin.
At present, the only two options are to appease my uncle, stop the army and make peace, or to delay the attack to delay my uncle's opportunity to attack the city.
But my uncle is still alive, and the truth about Fengyundu's assassination will be revealed to the world in tomorrow's statement.
Under such a situation, there was no suitable countermeasure to persuade my uncle to stop fighting and make peace. "
"Oh, look at the good things you have done. It is obvious that our court will soon dominate the world, but your one thought not only delayed the great achievements of Qianqiu, but also put the court and the outside world into crisis.
You let Aijia tell you what is good about you.
When you came to pay my respects, the Ai family told you more than once that you must handle the relationship between king and minister with your uncle.
Is this how you handle the relationship between king and minister? "
Li Ye sat back on the chair with a complicated expression.
"Grandma, my grandson regrets it, but he did nothing wrong.
Earlier, when the imperial court was about to unify the world, Sun'er thought about how to govern the world.
At that time, the frontiers of the twenty-seven prefectures in northern Xinjiang will become inner prefectures after the unification of the world.
However, the people of the twenty-seven prefectures in Northern Xinjiang only listened to the decrees of their uncle, the king of the same name. The imperial decrees were difficult to pass in all the prefectures of Northern Xinjiang.
Of the six documents sent to officials from all over Northern Xinjiang, the officials in Northern Xinjiang actually had to show them to my uncle before they could issue decrees in accordance with the imperial decree with his approval.
This is the case even before the world is unified.
After the world was unified, the frontiers became the inner palace.
One world, two voices, this is not a unified world.
There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country.
Grandson is the emperor of the day, but the people and officials in northern Xinjiang only have King Liu Mingzhi in their eyes, and there is no such person as grandson at all.
In such a world, how could my grandson not worry about it all day and night?
The grandson made vague suggestions to his uncle about centralizing power over and over again and again, but he always avoided talking about it.
The last time my grandson went to Northern Xinjiang to serve the Northern Expeditionary Army, he was lightly dressed and simple. After an unexpected situation happened outside Yingzhou City, his grandson intentionally or unintentionally signaled that he would follow the example of his mentor Mr. Wenren and retreat bravely for the sake of the stability of the court. .
But he and the child pretended to be dumbfounded and used excuses to cover up the past.
He holds the military and political power of a small half of the country so tightly that he has no intention of letting go. After the world is unified, how will his grandson govern the world?
Later, his grandson sent several decrees asking him to return to the court, and he was willing to treat him as a regent who took charge of the affairs of the world.
He either pretends to be sick and refuses, or refuses with various reasons.
His grandson had given him so many opportunities, but had he ever left him the dignity of an emperor?
In desperation, Hai'er could only use the opportunity of his troops to return to the capital, and wanted to invite him back to the capital first, and then deal with the subsequent regulations step by step.
However, when the storm was over, he would rather fight with swords than listen to his grandson's comforting gestures.
I have no choice but..."
Nangong Meng looked at Li Ye's trembling body and realized how much pressure his grandson was under when he made this decision.
Indeed, in a unified world, but with a small half of the country's mountains and rivers, the people only know the vassal king and not the emperor, which is intolerable for any emperor.
Nangong Meng couldn't tell what Li Ye had done wrong at this moment.
After Li Ye vented the pressure accumulated in his heart these days, he gasped for air. Looking at his grandmother Nangong Meng's worried and pitiful eyes, he poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp, then slammed the teacup on the table.
"Besides, my father's sudden change of fortune has made my son hastily ascend the throne without having experienced the government affairs, and he has no idea how to handle government affairs.
Later, my uncle personally taught his grandson every word and deed regarding state policies and state affairs.
The grandson spends all his time reading and studying every day, just to live up to his father's trust and his uncle's high expectations.
He studied the imperial power every day, accepted advice carefully, and worked hard to deal with memorials in every detail.
It was his uncle who taught his grandson how to be a good emperor and a wise king in a prosperous age.
And the grandson is working hard to become a good emperor in the eyes of his uncle, and a wise king through the ages.
It was obviously him who taught me to be a good emperor, and I worked hard to move forward.
But he was also the one who prevented the boy from becoming a prosperous and wise king loved by the people.
I just want to govern the world well and bring happiness to all people.
What did I do wrong? "
Nangong Meng stared blankly at Li Ye's flawless appearance, and didn't know what to say.
Li Ye inadvertently wiped the corners of his eyes twice and exhaled heavily.
"Grandma, things have become like this. It's too late to say whether it's right or wrong.
After all, it was the child who committed the unjust act against his uncle first.
Now the grandson can only try his best to make up for his mistakes.
I wonder if my grandmother has any good ideas to appease my uncle and make him stop fighting and make peace?
After all, you know your uncle’s personality and character better than your grandson, and perhaps you know your uncle’s weaknesses better than the child! "
Nangong Meng gently rubbed her temples with two fingers and pondered for a while, and finally sighed and shook her head.
"He almost died, and the Ai family didn't know how to soothe his anger and make him vent his anger and stop fighting, but..."
"But what?"
"Help Ai's family get up."
"Yes! Grandma, please slow down!"
Li Ye helped Nangong get off the bed. Nangong Meng straightened out his obscene clothes, picked up the candle on the table and walked towards the back hall. After a while, Nangong Meng came out with a brocade bag in his hand and handed it over. In front of Li Ye.
"In the past, when your grandfather was in great power, he was worried that your uncle would be disloyal, so he specially gave this tip to the Ai family.
Tell the Ai family that once your uncle wants to rebel against your father, take a look at the tips and solve the crisis.
Now, your father has been in business for many years.
I don’t know if the tips your grandfather left for your father are of any use to you. Please open them and take a look! "
Li Ye looked overjoyed and couldn't wait to take the bag of tips. He took out a neatly folded piece of rice paper that showed some success and looked at the candlelight at the side carefully.
After a long time, the surprise on Li Ye's face gradually faded away, and he fell weakly on the stool beside him.
Nangong Meng looked at Li Ye's reaction in astonishment: "Ye'er, what's going on? Doesn't your grandfather's clever plan work?"
Li Ye shook his head with a disappointed look.
"The child has violated the biggest taboo in grandfather's plan. According to grandfather's instructions, it is no longer possible to appease my uncle to stop the war and make peace."
Unwilling to believe it, Nangong Meng took the rice paper in Li Ye's hand and started to read it.
After a while, Nangong Meng, like Li Ye, sighed faintly.
"Family love, is there any family love left after the assassination?
My child, now you only have one trip to your mother.
Perhaps for the sake of her face, there is still the possibility of moderation.
It’s just possible! "
